Transfer pricing documentation

Transfer pricing documentation—which shows how a company applies pricing in intracompany transactions—is mandatory in many countries. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) recommendations for transfer pricing are evolving as part of a broad international dialogue on global taxation.

In this landscape, businesses must efficiently manage transfer pricing to meet local requirements while maintaining global consistency—a task demanding significant resources and attention.
